Using a “farmers’ jury” to see Nicaragua’s food system from rural perspectives

Jorge Irán Vásquez Zeledón, a participant in the project on Transitions to Agroecological Food Systems based in Nicaragua, has written a blog post (in Spanish) about a “Farmers’ Jury” organised in connection to the project.

The event aimed to investigate farmers’ views on the state of agroecological systems in Nicaragua, and what challenges need to be overcome to move from mainly conventional farming to a system where agroecological methods are more widespread.
